The Crying Book by Heather Christle

emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.0

This book reminded me of two others I've read this year, Maggie Nelson's Bluets (which fell a bit flat) and Sheila Heti's Pure Colour (which I loved). The Crying Book falls between these two. On the whole, the author succeeded in balancing the exploration of tears and human emotion  with personal memoir.
